About Dr. Deaton

I attended the California School of Professional Psychology (CSPP) in a training program approved by the American Psychological Association and received both masters and doctorate degress in clinical psychology with specialization in individual, child and couples psychotherapy. I had predoctoral internships at the Glendale Family Services Center and the Occidental College student counseling center. After graduation in 1995, I was an intern for a licensed psychologist and gained experience both administering psychological tests and treating inpatients at College Hospital in Cerritos and Del Amo Hospital in Torrance. I also treated individuals, families and couples in outpatient psychotherapy. Since obtaining licensure, I have been in private practice focusing on outpatient individual and couples psychotherapy. I have also been a clinical supervisor for interns at the Southern California Counseling Center and the Gay and Lesbian Center of Los Angeles. I am a member of the American Psychological Association, California Psychological Association, Los Angeles County Psychological Association and the Lesbian and Gay Psychotherapy Association of Los Angeles.
